23 1. Conclusion PROMOTION OF LOCAL MOBILITY for 46 % of all distances in Dredsen are within a distance of 3 km. Increased development of town area centers with many urban living and value leisure, children, senior- and family-friendly atmosphere, good reachability, high security Modal split for distances up to 3 km private automobile 21 % Investments in urban quality of life Resource sparing and budget reliefing public transport 12 % pedestrians 51 % Bicycle 16 % 23

24 2. Conclusion PROMOTION OF THE MOBILITY MANAGEMENT FOR COMPANIES for the traffic peaks occur as a result of the overlapping of the rush hour traffic with other kinds of traffic to school and training, commercial and leisure traffic. The aim is the reduction of the motorized private vehicle traffic by cutting back the rush hour traffic peaks Protection of mobility by switching to local public transport or car pools, and covering the distances by bike or on foot respectively. Sparing of ressources and cost reduction 24

26 Mobility Management Measures for companies PRINCIPLES Shaping mobility, not coping with traffic The voluntary, deliberate change of the choice of means of transport is aspired to and promoted flexible use of means of transport - multimodality Optimization of the local public transport offers, Improvement of the bike infrastructure in the public area and in the enterprises and of the traffic climate in the city Bringing together the persons involved (municipality, road users, transportation companies, transport service providers, traffic generators) mobility management measures for companies is practical committment, innovative thinking and a sense for the requirements of our time 26

27 Mobility Management Measures for companies INFINEON THE ENTRY 1996 establishment of the SIMEC-plant (today Infineon) in Dresden Because of traffic problems, the city of Dresden initiated business-related mobility surveys. Based on this, measures to improve the traffic organization and to shape mobility were developed and implemented. The initial operational project management Infineon was reflected in the participation of the City of Dresden in the federal research projects intermobil Region Dresden (BMBF 1999 until 2004) and operational mobility management and urban development Dresden (ExWoSt 2002 until 2003). 27

28 Mobility Management Measures for companies Use of means of transport on the way to work Modal split comparison of Infineon-employees in the period of time from 1996 until 2003 in percent 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% pedestrians Bicycle public transport 40% 30% 20% automobile passenger 10% 0% automobile drivers 28

29 Mobility Management Measures for companies INFINEON THE RESULTS Infineon-mobility team a permanent institution of committed employees with the support of the business management Infineon-ticket a cooperation of DVB and enterprise; coordination of the timetables with regard to shift times, moving of the bus stop, mobility days, new decentralized bike-parking spaces, showers for bike-riders and drying wardrobes for bike-rider clothes, bicyle workshop, commuter carpooling programs In the year 2005 around 2,5 tons of CO2-emissions were avoided an average of 400 kg per employee. The share of employees who come to work with the private car alone has fallen from 68 % in 1996 to 55 %. A noticeable reduction of car traffic causes less road maintenance and less accidents, reduces exhaust gas- and noise emissions. Employees arrive at their workplaces in a more stress-free condition. Cyclists make a valuable contribution to preserve their health. The various activities at Infineon were also nationally noticed. In 2004 the factory received the award Award Economy in Motion. 29

31 Mobility Management Measures for companies THE COSTS OF THE WORKTRIP Surveys assume costs of several hundred million Euro for the ways to work in Dresden alone. A burden is placed on the private households, the national economy and the employees with around one third each. A burden is placed on companies by the provision of automobile parking spaces, bike spaces, company-owned development facilities (access for vehicles etc.), participation in building, operation and maintenance of public transport facilities, work bus traffic, subsidies for local public transport but also by indirect costs, for example by travel accidents, delays, stressed employees (absence from work, low ability to work under pressure etc.) Therefore operational mobility management represents also for companies a considerable potential for the reduction of its costs. The cost factor is (also with regard to increasing prices of petrol) apart from the good reachability the crucial motivation help for the process of rethinking and the switching to alternative transport systems. 31

32 Mobility Management Measures for companies VARIOUS MEASURES Since 2004 the, main department mobiltiy yearly organizes seminars on mobility management for companies and informs in brochures and under about this subject. The offers specific counselling for the development of commercial locations and business expansions as well as in case of traffic problems in the surrounding area of companies. The municipal administration cooperates with the Chamber of Commerce and Industry and trade associations, holds joint events and informs in the trade journals. Also health insurance companies and trade associations are partners. The municipal administration initiates mobility information- and counselling days in companies, administrations and schools. Participation in the yearly mobility week of the European climate alliance and promotion of bike traffic within the context of the EU-project UrBike. 32

34 Mobility Management Measures for companies EXPANDING EXPERIENCES Experiences that started with the mobility management at Infineon were transferred to other companies and facilities, individually adjusted to the specific needs and extended, for example at AMD Dresden, university hospital, professional training center for health and social professions, airport Dresden, DREWAG, Elbe-Flugzeugwerke (aircraft works), Saxon State Office for environment and geology, Solarwatt, World-Trade-Center with around 100 firms, ZMD and others. Mobility days, job tickets, carpooling programs in the company intranet, parking space for bicyces, dry-wardrobes for biker clothes, showers for bikers, campaigns of housing associations»breakfast for commuters«,»other use of private car garages for parking of bikes«, Application of technical components for mobility management that were among other things developed within the context of intermobil Region Dresden (multimodal city- and traffic information system DORIS, information-terminals, SMS-services) 34

35 Mobility Management Measures for companies AMD company philosophy and responsibility AMD has published its Dresden mobility management in the worldwide available Climate Protection Plan 2004 Similar activities originated at the AMD-locations in Austin and Sunnyvale. The AMD-factory in Austin was awarded for the mobility management 2004 as Best Workplaces for Commuters. 35

36 Mobility Management Measures for companies SETTING A GOOD EXAMPLE The also practises mobility management in its adminstration authorities. In 2000 the mobility information and counselling began on a regular basis. Mobility days take place at the big admistrative locations with comprehensive information for employees and visitors. The municipal adminstration optimizes its locations according to reachability criteria for its own employees as well as for visitors and customers. Vehicles with a low performance were put out of service. CarSharing-vehicles are now available for business trips and fulfill the flexible mobility requirements (7 offices at 8 locations). Municipal offices also use bicycles to cover distances on official business. 36

38 Mobility Management Measures for companies ACCEPTANCE Mobility management measures for companies acitvely influences the flows of traffic coming from the workplace. It causes demonstrable effects for the companies without limiting mobility. By the city- and environmentally-friendly organization of mobility with a low conflict potential aspired to, time- and energy efficiency are especially promoted for the commercial traffic. There is additional benefit for companies and employees with regard to the aspects of health, fitness, punctuality, motivation as well as image. All persons cooperating are actively involed into the shaping of the mobility offers initiating attractive and accepted offers. Operational mobility management is an important instrument for the improvement of the quality of air, the noise reduction, makes a sustainable contribution to road safety and increases the quality of life and living in the cities. 38

39 Mobility Management Measures for companies SUMMARY Mobility management measures for companies essentially contributes to cost efficiency, relief of the environment and to securing the improvement of the reachability of the respective locations. The experiences of the operational mobility management can be easily transferred, for example to training-, school- and university centers, administrations, leisure centers etc. The commitment of municipalities in the field of mobility shaping is relatively new. The is certified as having a pioneer role. Dresden actively participates in the transfer of knowledge also increasingly within the scope of European urban networks and European project work. Only long-term and continuous work is effective and the effects become noticeable. 39
